Artistic Expressions at The 222: A Journey Through Creativity and Connection

Matt Wilson

Myra Melford

Mark Dresser

Active since 2006, this all-star jazz collective with pianist Myra Melford, bassist Mark Dresser, and drummer Matt Wilson has toured all around the world and recorded two critically acclaimed releases, The Big Picture (2007) and The Guest House (2012). Myra Melford has distinguished herself through her unique ability to blend jazz with elements of blues, Indian classical music, and avant-garde improvisation. She has pursued a creative vision that is both wholly distinctive and all-embracing, where composition and improvisation interact seamlessly and ingeniously, one side strengthening the other. Divergent idioms and eras coalesce—from jazz, blues and global folk styles to various corners of the classical tradition. Extramusical influences—the poetry of Rumi or the spirituality of the Huichol Indians of Mexico—also figure in the mix. In the end, Melford’s efforts are probably best served by labels like “contemporary music” or “new music,” or other tags that signify artistic freedom and daring more than any boundaries of genre.
